    If you have a social insurance number you can approach any bank to set up a bank account in the US. Do you need a list of who these banks are?

    They want you to open an account in a bank because they are probably making automatic deposits of your salary cheques.

    I am sure your employer will help you further if you ask them questions; they will also direct you in your community.
